This is the start to the world championship for us. |
Those who have come into Formula One without experiencing cars devoid of electronic aids will find it tough. To control 800 horsepower relying just on arm muscles and foot sensitivity can turn out to be a dangerous exercise. |
To be honest I would say that it is pretty unlikely. |
To me, it looks like it's much more tactic than skill of driving ability, ... It doesn't matter to go pull a gap because you're going to have a yellow flag. |
We can accept the result considering everything that has happened over the weekend. |
We can accept this result, considering everything that has happened over the weekend. I don't think that we could have achieved much more. |
We feel pretty strongly that we can be competitive here. Every race now is important for us. |
We had an amazing weekend. |
We had an amazing weekend. A lot of work, we made some mistakes in the last race and to come here and perform the way we performed...well you can see the result. |
We have not decided yet, how much longer we will be testing here. I'm willing to do anything that's necessary. |
We worked very hard, naturally -- because of our misfortune and the mistakes we made in the last weeks -- to make up ground and here we are, and we've made up significant ground. Obviously the race is important -- this is one step towards it -- but seeing where Fernando, in particular, is it's great for us in terms of first strategy and hopefully result as well by the end of the race. |
We've had a really big push from everybody and as you can see, this is the result. |
We've had various tests obviously during the winter and things have in general improved compared to what was our position and situation last year. |
When you are not as competitive as you want to be, you try everything you can to improve and my spin was partly the result of that. |
When you start out in a team, you have to get the teamwork going and then you get something back. |
